We all should remember the disgraceful way the World Health Organization dealt with Covid. In the beginning it conducted a flawed investigation of the origins of Covid, seeing CCP China as being in no way at fault; first by dismissing the Wuhan lab origin hypothesis, and then by ignoring how CCP China then allowed the virus to spread from its borders. This globalist anti-West organisation then set about giving us all of the associated tyrannies that we faced with Covid, with the mandates and imprisonments. It never opposed the construction of Covid concentration camps, which by the way, are not discussed much now, but presumably are still in operation. Giving these globalists more power would be a total disaster for liberty. In fact, all of these organisations which undermine national sovereignty, such as the UN should be shut down. Here is Steve Kirsch, leading Covid critic wading in on this one:
“Insane news item #1: US government to cede control to WHO for future pandemics. This is not a joke.
OK, now the insane news. The US government is about to hand over the keys to the pandemic response to the goofballs at the WHO. The WHO, as we all remember, did not spend a dime on the fastest, safest, and cheapest way to end the pandemic: using repurposed drugs. Even today, they can’t seem to figure out that there are dozens of proven early treatment protocols that save lives. They are corrupt. So why would world governments want to give them the power to exclusively coordinate the pandemic response for the next pandemic?
The bad news: this will soon be a done deal.
Thanks to Mike Yeadon for alerting me to this.
Here’s Mike’s message to me (excerpt):
Steve,
I’ve heard about this from half a dozen sources & I’m sorry to say that the concerns expressed are wholly justified.
It’s a mad idea, but since certain individuals & nations have pretty much taken over the WHO, I think it’s a certainty that, if this new treaty gets signed, within a few years at most, a “public health emergency of International concern” will be declared, and all currently sovereign nations will become controlled subsidiaries of WHO.
…
No government should even have the power to throw their country over to a third party. If that happened, they’d never give it back.
U.K. parliament signed up to emergency powers on the occasion of the first lockdown over two years ago. That temporary bill has never been repealed. We have no rights whatsoever if they decide we don’t. This is the main reason we emigrated.
Here’s the best practical reason not to sign such a treaty, aside from its anti-democratic central problem:
Imagine there’s a new pathogen spreading across the world. Nobody, anywhere, knows what the best response should be. By definition it’s not known.
History teaches us that we alight most rapidly upon probable best courses of action, not from modeling, but from empirical evidence. Running a large number of experiments, based on the smartest public health, medical & scientific brains, will quickly tell us what kinds of responses are helpful & which are not. Maintaining very good communication makes sure lessons learned are shared quickly.
The worst conceivable response would be to place the decision making power in the hands of a single body. They’ll likely run one experiment. We’ll never learn the counterfactual.
On this basis, I don’t even understand why anyone would fall for the idiotic notion that letting WHO have the controls would be a great idea. Even if they were honest & competent.
Please let me know if I can help in any way.
Best wishes
Mike
Here’s the amazing substack article that describes what is going on. You won’t find this anywhere in the mainstream media. It’s a long article, but really well done.”

KEY TAKEWAYS:
- The International Health Regulations (IHR) are legally binding and supercede the United States Constitution. All the nations of the world have already agreed to the existing International Health Regulations.
- The United States has proposed amendments to the legally binding International Health Regulationsthat will be voted upon at the next World Health Assembly this May 22, 2022 to May 28, 2022.
- These proposed amendments will cede additional sovereignty, control and legal authority over to the World Health Organization.
- These amendments will NOT require approval by 2/3 of the United States Senate. If they are approved (as submitted by the United States) by 2/3 of the member countries of the World Health Assembly (130 of 194 countries), these amendments would enter into force as international law just six months later (November 2022).
- It is not known if the amendments will be voted upon individually or as a complete package.
- The amendments will give the Director General of the WHO the power to unilaterally declare a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) even over the objection of the country dealing with an outbreak of disease.
- According to changes made to U.S. regulationsthat were published one day before Donald Trump was inaugurated (January 19, 2017), the definition of a “Public Health Emergency” in the United States now includes the declaration of a PHEIC by the WHO.
- A unilateral declaration of a PHEIC by the WHO will enable the declaration of a Public Health Emergency by the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services.
- The amendments proposed by the United States would also give the Director General of the WHO the legal authority to unilaterally issue an “intermediate public health alert (IPHA).” The criteria for the issuance of an IPHA is simply that “the Director-General has determined it requires heightened international awareness and a potential international public health response.”
- The amendments will also give “regional directors” within the WHO the legal authority to declare a Public Health Emergency of Regional Concern (PHERC).
- Yes people, the United States wants to hand over our sovereignty to Regional Directors at the WHO and give them the power to “PHERC” us and “PHERC” the world, one region at a time. “PHERC” that!
